YN you are friggin funny!
Welcome aboard you signed on with the most helpful ballbusters you can ever find! 😆
Yeah..I mean damn!! I thought I was impatient …DUDE__you cannot seriously expect an answer in NINE minutes!!! You think guys just sit at the keyboard 24 hours a day, just waiting for a “HELP” post to come up???
On the other hand, I do know the feeling of just getting your new AF gun and being excited and doing something like you did and being afraid you’ve messed something up!!! We ALL know that feeling..Go ot and run about 100 pellets through your new AF gun…try to relax!! 😆 😆
9 minute’s for you to get an answer and your bitching.. are you freaking kidding me?
That has to be a record…
On a forum, probably should give it at least 10 minutes before you complain. 🙄
OOO,OOO,WAAA.
9 minute’s for you to get an answer and your bitching.. are you freaking kidding me?

Well unless you can find someting broke it should be fine. I don’t like the AF safety so I took mine out. I’m not a fan of safetys in general……my finger is my safety.
We will once we stop laughing. 😛
Probably not.
With the bottle installed the valve spring absorbs most of the shock, without it all goes to the threaded collar that holds the bottle. Earlier guns used to just have one set screw holding that collar in place – my first talon was used and the collar showed signs of repeated firing with no bottle as the set screw hole was elongated
Newer guns have two set screw’s which seem to stop this but I still wouldn’t do it repeatedly.
dang…it’s that crucial no one wants to reply??? 😯

YN, have you seen any damage to the breech, o-rings, Top Hat, or valve stem from firing with the breech open? I would think that the breech would add considerably weight to the hammer.

I’ll hold my breath while waiting for any reply…………..GASP!!!! On second thought at my age holding my breath for 10 seconds might bring on the big one.
